Can brakes with a nut fitting to the fork/bridge be used with an Allen thingy countersunk fitting - subject to getting hold of the appropriate hardware? I have a frame/fork designed for countersunk Allen fitting and don't want to buy nut secured brakes if they won't be any use to me.TIA.

You don`t state the brand of brake, but if Campag, I have in the past obtained an allen nut rear pivot bolt + front/rear allen nuts, use the rear nut caliper for the front, fit the allen pivot bolt in the original front caliper & use for the rear. Or if you have kit to thread the pivot bolt usually M6, do as above, cutting & threading the longer pivot bolt + then just requiring the 2 allen nuts
